"There is a fifth dimension beyond that which is known to man. It is a dimension as vast as space and as timeless as infinity. It is the middle ground between light and shadow, between science and superstition, and it lies between the pit of man's fears and the summit of his knowledge. This is the dimension of imagination. It is an area which we call the Twilight Zone." Rod Serling

I believe the man in this episode was a astronaut and was in a test to see how long he could go without human interaction.

Rod was awesome. Lots of Twilight Zone episodes on various stations at various times, but Rod's other well known series isn't. Night Gallery of course!

Koolmum1957, I was thinking the same thing, but then I remembered the protagonist in that episode wasn’t an astronaut. The character in that episode was Burgess Meredith, who went on to play The Penguin in the 1960s Batman TV series, and then Mick, Rocky Balboa’s trainer. That one is my favorite episode.

Serling took Planet of the Apes, an OK French novel, and basically shaped it into a big screen two hour Twilight Zone, one of the greatest sci-fi movies of all time.

Player #24358685, Neil Peart has been called one of the greatest, if not THE greatest for quite some time. I don't think it's any kind of modern phenomenon associated with his passing. He was widely recognized during his lifetime as such.

Remember the episode where an old woman is stalked for hours by a tiny space ship that has somehow gotten into her house? In terror, she beats it with a broom and as it lies broken we hear it radio back to earth: "There are giants here!"

I was 8 and remember running home from playing so I wouldn’t miss an episode. That and The Outer Limits were responsible for my love of science fiction.

I really should actually watch the show. Interesting that individuals such as myself, that have been a born a dash after that era still have some sort of sense as to what the in the "Twilight Zone" means. As a matter of fact, I've been getting to feel like that quite often these days. haha!

Koolmum1957, one of my favorites is the one with the bomb shelter. Where everyone thinks he's crazy for building one but then later force their way into because they don't want to die.
